The Religious Right aka Evangelicals are violently opposed to abortion. They want it outlawed with serious penalties for anyone having or supected of having an abortion, including miscarriages. At the same time they are opposed to policies that actually reduce abortions because they would be paid for by tax dollars. And because the life of the fetus isn't reaally the point. It is to punish women for enjoying teh same sexual freedom that men have always enjoyed. Women are simply to be baby machines at and for the pleasure of men. They love to say that the bible is opposed to abortion. Of course they really have to work hard to find some way for it to say that, because it isn't.
The Founding Fathers whom they worship like Lenin or Ataturk were not opposed.
They claim to be pro-life but the life of the woman is irrelevent.
A fertilized egg, an embryo, including one in a petri dish, or even a fetus is not a living human being.

ReplyDeleteI'm glad of that, EC
DeleteRight-wing extremists have their heads up their asses on this and every other issue as well.
ReplyDeleteYet the election is still almost tied when it should be 75:25 for Harris
DeleteThe Religious Right???? More likely the Religious Wrong in my opinion.
ReplyDeleteYou called it
DeleteI can't believe this is STILL an issue, all these years after Roe vs. Wade. And it breaks my heart that so much ground has been lost so quickly.
ReplyDeleteBut it's as I've always said: You only *think* you have rights. In fact, it takes very little for those "rights" to be revoked. That's true for everybody to some extent, but especially for women... and anybody else who isn't a rich, straight, white male.
The only right they cannot take from you is the right to die. How is that for a morbid answer. All other rights are conferred and can be withdrawn.
DeleteMost of the Evangelicals. I have really no kind words for.
ReplyDeleteMe, neither. Republican Jesus Christians all of them
